The Ashtabula Campus program is not JRCERT accredited, nor has it applied to the JRCERT for accredited status.

With the successful completion of the program, graduates are eligible to take the certification examination administered by the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists. Admission to the program is on a selective basis due to the limited number of students approved for each clinical education center. The application deadline is Feb. 1. Program applicants are encouraged to meet with an advisor at the campus to discuss the minimum admission requirements. Detailed information and requirements for admission, satisfactory progress and graduation are in the student handbook for this program. A copy of the handbook may be obtained from the program director.

Progression

The radiography program is competency based in skills. In order to continue in the program, a student must have 75% in clinical performance and a 75% average in each Radiography course. A student who drops for academic or other reasons may apply for readmission if in compliance with the UA Fort Smith student academic progress policy as outlined in the Course Catalog, however, the student is not guaranteed a position. Unless there are extenuating circumstances, a student is limited to one readmission into the program.

A grade of “C” or better is required in all science courses. Science courses taken more than five years prior to entering the program will be evaluated on an individual basis by the program director and/or college dean. See your advisor for more information and to request a science course evaluation.

Graduation

Upon successful completion of the program with a grade point average of 2.0 or better, an Associate of Applied Science (AAS) degree is awarded. The student must meet with their program advisor to complete the graduation application. The student is responsible for providing the Records Office with evidence that the criteria for graduation have been met one month prior to graduation.

Curriculum:

In addition to the basic medical science and the radiological physics coursework, a specific course of study is offered in diagnostic imaging or in Radiation Oncology physics. This course of study includes didactic courses, independent study, and hands-on clinical activity covering the selected discipline, along with specific technical research culminating in a research project or thesis.
